Chris Coons

Chris Coons reads to me as the institutional workhorse rather than the firebrand, and I mean that as a compliment. A lawyer out of Amherst who ran New Castle County before taking Delaware's Senate seat in 2010, he's the kind of legislator who builds coalitions rather than chases viral clips. In an era that rewards outrage, the patient bridge-builders quietly keep the machinery of government moving. I find that temperament underrated. Born in 1963, with a businessperson's background layered onto his legal training, Coons strikes me as someone whose value shows up in the durable, unspectacular work of actually governing.
